Hi,

I'm trying to remove the sunglasses/maplight hutch in my 2013 Aurion (Late 2013), and I'm not having much luck.

I have found one videon on the internet telling me how to do it on a camry (here: http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/index.php/topic/32726-how-to-remove-map-light-console/), but the hutch is slightly different to mine, and this did not work (or maybe I didnt use enough force?).

Can anyone tell me how to do this? I tried as the video (pulling the front of the hutch backwards, to try to unclip something inside), without success.

Thanks.

-- EDIT --

I got my answer. Its to just pull harder. One of the clips broke a little, and another stayed behind, but it seems this is the only way (and the right way) to remove thisthing.

      How to delete bluetooth device?

      I have a Yaris and had a similar issue. I just submitted a similar query to GPT. The response was to go into settings, view paired devices, select the device to remove, and confirm the removal. It helped me; I couldn't find the answer on the internet, but I found it there.

      Transmission U660e

      @campbeam much appreciated, very interesting, it’s got me buggered as on the Toyota Estima groups everyone is quoting 1.6 litres cold for a drain and drop, now, these run the exact same drivetrain as the Aurion 2GR-FE and U660E combo, so in theory all figures should line up, I’m hedging my bets on your maths and techniques though, you seem well versed…. thanks again

      Auto door locking on new 2024 C-HR?

      My wife is looking at purchasing a new 2024 C-HR Hybrid. Does anyone with one of these know whether the doors lock automatically when driving off? Her 2018 C-HR doesn't do this which is annoying as my 11 year old Kia Sportage does.

      IAC for 1997 Camry Vienta (3vzfe)

      You'll see quite a few Japanese companies which have similar names to other ones due to the syllabic Japanese language (words are made up of syllables rather than distinct letters, so there are only so many combinations), or because they are named after their founding (and many people/places have similar names, also due to the syllabic nature). Both Aisin and Aisan get the first half of their name from the Aichi Prefecture (a Japanese province) they started in, it gets a bit complicated after that (Japanese is a strange language, you can have individual syllables that are pronounced one way but when combined with another are pronounced differently, so the San part of Aisan comes from Mie Prefecture (both san and mi are related to the number three). Aisin comes from when Aichi Kogyo (Aichi Industries) merged with Shinkawa Kogyo (Shinkawa Industries) to form Aisin Seiki (Aisin Standard, or something similar). Another good example is that a lot of Toyotas will have Mitsuboshi (Three Stars) accessory belts, not to be confused with Mitsubishi (Three Diamonds)

      Why no Land Cruiser forum

      Having just discovered this group and having made a significant reply to a Land Cruiser question from a member, I'm wondering why there is no specific discussion forum for Land Cruisers, given their popularity. This is now particularly relevant given the unavailability of the missing (from the web) LCOOL forum (Land Cruiser Owners On Line). This was a great forum with a mountain of very valuable information regarding Land Cruisers, but it has disappeared. Does anyone know of other sites that cater for LC owners? I know of the Facebook group Landcruiser Owners Group Australia but find it useless and too hard to navigate. I am not a Facebook fan! Kind regards Geoff
